Early years
The Chicago Cubs have one of the richest histories of any team in baseball. The team wasn’t always known by its current name, though. When the squad first entered Major League Baseball in 1876, it was known as the Chicago White Stockings. It joined the National League as one of the original eight charter franchises, etching its place into history forever. In fact, its even went on to win the National League Pennant in 1876, enjoying success that the team would sadly not replicate for many seasons to come. Some years later, the White Stockings would set an incredible record for runs scored as they defeated Louisville by a margin of 36-7 in June 1897.

The modern era
The 20th century was a time of incredible growth, struggle and achievement for the organization. In 1902, a local Chicago newspaper penned the nickname “Cubs” for the team, playing off of the fact that the club fielded a particularly young roster most years. The name stuck, and the club officially adopted the moniker, becoming the Chicago Cubs in 1907. In 1906 and 1907, the Cubs would win back-to-back National League Championships, capping off that incredible run with a World Series victory over the Detroit Tigers, another original-eight franchise, in 1907. At that point, the squad was led by a group of incredible players, most notably pitchers Mordecai Brown and Orval Overall. The team’s chemistry only continued to grow alongside its swelling fan? base. In October 1908, the Cubs once again bested the Tigers, claiming the club’s second World Series win.

Wrigley Field
The stadium was known as Weeghman Park when it first opened in 1914. Over the next two decades, new owner William Wrigley would go on to expand the park’s seating capacity through multiple renovations. After Wrigley passed away at the age of 61 in 1932, the park was renamed in his honor. Over time, the park would come to adopt corporate sponsorship from Old Style brewing, selling their products in the stadium until taking on a new contract with Miller-Coors in the mid-2010s. The stadium is known for being visible from a handful of rooftop establishments located over the right field wall, which is covered in the ballpark’s historic ivy.
